In other matters, Gud, how are you doing today?

Not brilliant, but getting by.

Happy birthday, Hec!

Last Friday I had chocolate-covered almonds for breakfast.

And I'd do it again.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Whew, I'm finally caught up! Birthday weekend celebrations, then a wicked headcold had me several hundred messages behind. It's been a long time since I had that kind of a catch up in Natter. I'm feeling kinda nostalgic.

Happy Belated Birthday, JZ! You are, as stated above, a lovely person and I'm glad we get to celebrate another year of you!

Happy Birthday, David! May today be the start of a year that is far superior to the one in the rearview!

Karl, scary story! Glad you got help and are still with us!

Gud, Buffistas are wise. I hope you are able to hear the advice they gave you. I'm glad you're here.

Political news, I Can't Even right now.

David, FYI I loved that Matilda baseball story on FB and shared it with non-Buffista friends. She was much celebrated last weekend.

Yikes. Reports of multiple shootings at the Capital Gazette newspaper in Annapolis.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, fuck.

No official word on casualties but a reporter there tweeted that at least some people are dead.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dammit, I was coming over here to share a dumb problem. Well, I'm going to anyway: I have been invited to tour a construction site tomorrow. You have to wear heavy pants and boots. It's going to be hot out tomorrow, and I may end up being too busy to go on the tour anyway. Should I just plan not to go, or should I risk being hot for no reason?
